  Re: Brickfest Pneumatic Master and new Pneumatic Gate Circuits
 
I think this diagram should explain the differences: (URL) is the N-input differential output AND gate, developed from your sketch. I've used 2 switches for A, to gate the supply so that it doesn't leak. This gives 2+4++4 switches for an N-input (...) (19 years ago, 25-Aug-05, to lugnet.technic)

  Re: Brickfest Pneumatic Master and new Pneumatic Gate Circuits
 
(...) I mechanically link the two pistons together so they act as though they were one larger piston, also I mechanically link the four switches. This eliminates any issue with racing between the two pistons and their switches. Could you explain in (...) (19 years ago, 24-Aug-05, to lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: Telehandler finally completed
 
(...) Thanks for the kind words Vineet! What I meant was; before the boom only elevated to about 35 degrees. The real ones go past 45 degrees. It was a good design that needed improvement. I think it is lighter now too. One good tip I got at (...) (19 years ago, 24-Aug-05, to lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: Brickfest Pneumatic Master and new Pneumatic Gate Circuits
 
(...) I'm looking into alternative gate designs and I'd like to have a good library of them on my Brickshelf to then use as a resource for article pictures. This includes N-input gates of each type, as I intend to draw the module that can be (...) (19 years ago, 24-Aug-05, to lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: gears
 
(...) I don't know about stronger, but they're definitley smoother. There's less play between the newer gears. They're also wider, so there's more contact between the tooth and the gear perimeter. That may make them stronger. The only drawback is (...) (19 years ago, 24-Aug-05, to lugnet.technic)
 
  gears
 
Does anyone know if the newer double bevel gears are stronger than the older lego technic gears? By stronger I mean won't break under pressure like the older ones. (19 years ago, 24-Aug-05, to lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: steering
 
(...) This I sort of figured out when I was trying to test the steering. Maybe when I strip it down, I 'll revamp the steering (but the thing is I want all the steering axles to steer). (19 years ago, 24-Aug-05, to lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: Brickfest Pneumatic Master and new Pneumatic Gate Circuits
 
(...) Kevin, And after you write a few articles for Brickjournal it is my hope that you would complete them in a book on pneumatics (maybe along with CS?). I spoke with others at Brickfest and they said they would buy the book and I would probably (...) (19 years ago, 24-Aug-05, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.events.brickfest)
 
  Re: steering
 
(...) To make the steering work best, the external knob should turn the outermost sets of wheels, ie the ones nearest the front and back of the crane, with the most direct link possible, then gear it down towards the centre to steer the rest. TLC (...) (19 years ago, 23-Aug-05, to lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: Liebherr LG 1750
 
(...) Hello all- I might have to put what I have done on hold for a while (I have to figure out how to incorporate pneumatics to push out the outriggers, as well as making the base for the turntable). In fact, I might have to strip the whole thing (...) (19 years ago, 23-Aug-05, to lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: steering
 
Thanks. But I figured out a way to set up my steering. I'll just be lazy and use the Lego Technic Crane idea of having the steering in the end of the vehicle. (I have found that it is difficult to control a 6+ axle steering by a knob on the top of (...) (19 years ago, 23-Aug-05, to lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: steering

You mean your earlier photos of the telehandler showed an incomplete vehicle? I find that hard to believe! LOL! (19 years ago, 22-Aug-05, to lugnet.technic)
